A small point....but in Vegas as well as the entire United States....Air Temp is by default measured in Degrees F....as we have not adopted the Metric System.
No mental gymnastics needed for American Pilots flying in....America. As for doing Weight and Balance/Performance calculations.....most aircraft charts either have a Conversion Table or have both C and F Indexes on the Chart. |
Wow, That's a small pad, you wouldn't even see that as you put the skids down. Respect to bush pilots. It would take a while to get that feel again.

It was excactly a mix up between kg, gallons and the conversionfactors, which led to the gliding landing.... It's all fine if everything runs smoothly- but when the stress sets in an the holes in the cheese start to line up, it could be an advantage to have some holes removed in advance.... |

Yes Photobucket now wants to charge $400 to host pics shown on sites like this.
Needless to say I am disappointed in their new "business" policy and am switching as fast as I can to a better hosting service. Sorry for the litter:rolleyes: |
